About Me

Courtney N.

Courtney is a 20-something writer and bookseller working her way to authorhood. Books are her everything, and sometimes her characters like to come out and play.
She loves recommending good books to people (and what better way to do that than by running a review blog?) and LOVES receiving recommendations in return (but seriously, her to-read shelves are overflowing). So let's discuss favourites, countdown to release dates, and drool over cover reveals!
Happy reading! <3

30 Jul 2012

The only excuse I really have for slacking on the reviews is that I've been busy finishing writing the first draft of my current WIP. I guess that is a pretty legitimate reason, huh? Especially since I finished that draft (hurray!).

But neglecting this blog is not okay, and I feel really guilty about it. Right now I am in the editing process of my WIP, so I'm no longer all 'writed out' (we'll just pretend that's a real term, okay?), meaning I can write reviews.
HOWEVER, I am going on vacation in a few days, so there probably won't be anything new posted until I am back. I will have a lot of time to read while I'm on vacation, so I should have some books to review for when I get back.

The series I will be reviewing first for sure is the Trylle trilogy by Amanda Hocking. It's a series that is not all that new, but I enjoyed it a lot, and I have some thoughts on it that I would like to get out. Plus I had never heard of it before the covers caught my eye in the bookstore (I'm a sucker for one-word titles, I really am), so perhaps there are others that have not heard of these lovelies yet? (Even though Amanda Hocking is pretty well-known in the internet world).

Also, if anyone would like to guest-blog, just hit me up via e-mail! Writing tips, a YA review, a cover analysis, a series review -- anything book-related, and I'll take it.

tldr: Sorry I haven't posted in a while. It might be another two weeks before anything of substance is up, but bear with me! I'm not ditching this blog, I promise.
